In keeping with the liturgical and spiritual tradition of St. Vladimir’s Seminary to mark the beginning of Great Lent, the entire seminary community will enter into the holy season by participating in Forgiveness Vespers on Sunday, February 18, and by participating in two full days of Lenten retreat on Monday, February 19, and Tuesday, February 20.
During the Lenten retreat, students, faculty, and staff will worship in Three Hierarchs Chapel nearly 12 hours daily, and will hear edifying meditations by Priest Anthony Roeber, sessional professor of Church History at the Seminary. (See the chapel schedule.)
Classes will not be held on those days, and the Seminary will be closed for business.
